Gender Dysphoria isn't like a broken bone, it's like Body Integrity Identity Disorder, the condition that makes you want to chop a limb off.
The reason that doctors grilled patients about their identity or other life and mental health problems, is because they want to identify if a person is actually trans and would be best served by medical intervention, or if there is perhaps some different issue that can be solved in a manner that doesn't require causing permanent harm to the body. This is especially important as most "trans" children no longer identify as such when they're older.
Medical intervention, whether hormones or surgery, is a drastic step and shouldn't be treated differently because trans activist want to pretend differently. If it truly is best for the individual, okay, but there are many individuals it's not a good choice for. This includes many who have detransitioned, some of who are suing the NHS because when they approached them as patients, the staff immediately started them on transitioning. Something these people have determined wasn't in their interests, and has harmed them.

Mutilation is never the answer.
It is however a massive money maker and the medical industry is full of the absolute worst sort of greedy psychopaths and spineless yes-men.
